watso has spent ages, trying to get a "live cd" to work - but in the end, it seems to be a good idea.
watso has a "puppy linux" on a bootable cd (just like windows xp) - the beauty is, is that when the cd is "loaded" the whole system (operating system, and software) sits in ram - so that the hard drive is not needed
from watso's reading, it is supposed to be a pretty fast system, as it is pretty small - like about 70mb. watso will try and set it up on the hard drive, of an older computer. linux is supposed to be less prone to viruses etc etc
